Pamaypay (Tagalog pronunciation: [pɐmaɪˈpaɪ], puh-my-PY), also known as paypay, payupas, buri fan, or anahaw fan, is a type of traditional hand-held fan from the Philippines. It is typically made from woven buri palm or anahaw palm leaves. It is usually heart-shaped, and woven in a technique known as sawali (twilled). The edges are braided and merges into a looped handle. It is also typically made into wall decorations and other handicrafts. The term is also sometimes used for the abaniko, a folding hand fan used by the upper classes in the Spanish colonial period of the Philippines.
